Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zimbabwe's stone sculpture is unique, not only because of its individual form and content, which is highly valued and acclaimed in the art centres of the world, but because it springs from indigenous talent that lay hidden until the 1960s. This book explores the creativity and craftsmanship of the Shona, Chewa, Yao and Mbunda artists who have earnt international recognition for their remarkable work. Contemporary Stone Sculpture in Zimbabwe provides a fascinating overview of an intriguing art form and is likely to become the standard work on the subject.

Download or read book There Is No Such Thing As a Spirit in the Stone! Misrepresentations of Zimbabwean Stone Sculpture written by Olga Sicilia and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work focuses on contemporary Zimbabwean Stone Sculpture - widely known until the early 1990s as "Shona Sculpture" - from the perspective of a critical anthropological analysis of cultural identity and representation. The analysis frames the inception of this art movement within the colonial socio-historical circumstances of its genesis, where discourse about the producers of this art form ("Shona discourse") was created. Drawing from the social context of inequality and racial (spatial) segregation, and from the concepts of the "primitive" in art and anthropology, the author aims to show how "Shona discourse" entails a primitivist construction of the Other (i.e., the sculptors' cultural identity) that is directly linked to modernist primitivism. "Shona discourse," as a temporalising discourse, situates the producers of so-called "Shona sculpture" in an extra-ordinary time, the time of "primitive" myth, magic and cosmology, constituting in this sense a good example of "allochronic" discourse. Originating within the colonial politics and ideology of the 1960s, and contested by younger generations of sculptors from the 1990s onwards, this discourse was, paradoxically, appropriated by the cultural politics of "indigenisation" during the early period of the post-independence Zimbabwean State as part of its national identity and heritage.

Book excerpt: Zimbabwean sculpture continues to be one of Africa's most original and internationally acclaimed artistic movements. This retrospective exhibit catalog reflects on the origins, developments, and contemporary challenges of the movement. Containing 90 fullcolor photographs of examples of stone sculpture from the 1950s until the present day, it showcases the work of artists, past and present, from Zimbabwe and other countries of the southern African region, such as Zambia, Angola, and Mozambique. Introductory essays give an overview of stone sculpture in Zimbabwe, reflect on the role of the National Gallery and Tengenenge, and document the rise of the "independent sculptor" and the "extended family" in Zimbabwean stone sculpture. The final essay is on sculpture, street-craft, and reproduction. This dual-language book is a joint publication with The Embassy of France in Harare, and the texts and accompanying notes are translated into French.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Figural and non-figural supports are a ubiquitous feature of Roman marble sculpture; they appear in sculptures ranging in size from miniature to colossal and of all levels of quality. At odds with modern ideas about beauty, completeness, and visual congruence, these elements, especially non-figural struts, have been dismissed by scholars as mere safeguards for production and transport. However, close examination of these features reveals the tastes and expectations of those who commissioned, bought, and displayed marble sculptures throughout the Mediterranean in the Hellenistic and Roman periods. Drawing on a large body of examples, Greek and Latin literary sources, and modern theories of visual culture, this study constitutes the first comprehensive investigation of non-figural supports in Roman sculpture. The book overturns previous conceptions of Roman visual values and traditions and challenges our understanding of the Roman reception of Greek art.
